MARKER TEXT:
Cosgrove House
The western portion of this adobe brick house was built for Frank and Ilabella Cosgrove in 1878. It was originally constructed with dirt floors, roof and a Sonoran corner fireplace.
During the 1890s, Theophile Nicholas "Americanized" the structure by adding the central portion of the lean-to and a shingled, gabled roof.
Between 1898-1911 a brick veneer with window and door archways modernized its appearance, and a garage was added after 1916.
